Unrequited

I want to lie down in sundrops

and taste April in December,

laze in pools of light glowing like honey,

eat pomegranates and ice cream

on a rock in the middle of a river,

dance barefoot in the sand

with the moon rising sun setting tide coming in,

melt into a kiss that lasts til next November,

evaporate into music and become

a cold beer on a summer afternoon at the beach.

Magic is all I want.

About the Creator

Harper Lewis

I'm a weirdo nerd who’s extremely subversive. I like rocks, incense, and all kinds of witchy stuff. Intrusive rhyme bothers me.

I’m known as Dena Brown to the revenuers and pollsters.

MA English literature, College of Charleston
